"Geothermal taps into the earth's natural heat transfer system below the ground," he said. "Pipes and pumps are installed to transfer heat to and from a home. In the winter months, heat is carried through central ventilation systems. In the summer months, heat is injected back into the wells to cool off a home."
The article asserts that one way to employ greener techniques for an eco-friendly home is to make DIY household cleaners: "Mix vinegar and water in a spray bottle and use yesterday's newspaper as glass cleaner. Make a paste from natural dish soap and baking soda to clean the bathtub. You should only buy from brands that disclose their ingredients on the bottle and don't use synthetic fragrances." Trent Davis, Red Deer refrigeration pro, recommends looking for Energy Star ratings on products to prove the equipment's efficiency.
"With a full load out of washers and dryers, dishwashers and other Energy Star products, you could save hundreds on utility bills and make a positive impact on the environment," he said. "As for washers and dryers specifically, make sure you only run loads of laundry when they are full. To reduce electricity from a dryer, consider hanging your clothes to dry when and if you can."
Trent Davis asserts that one of the best ways to reduce power bills is by investing in efficient windows, insulation and roofing. "Combined, homes can reduce their dependency on HVAC systems. Water is another resource green homes hope to save. Dual-flush toilets, efficient showerheads and rain collectors are just a few ways to reduce water use." Trent Davis, Red Deer resident, notes that ceiling and ground fans are much more efficient than bulky AC units, and they are affordable and easy to install.
